Synopsis:
The first edition of Chemical Warfare Agents was published just prior to the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001. This event heightened the concern and increased the interest in chemical warfare. Since then, research related to chemical warfare agents has expanded exponentially. This second edition provides the most up-to-date, cutting-edge research in this area, including gene expression, plant produced protection, bioscavengers, and short and long term health effects (both psychological and neurological). In addition, emergency medical responses to terrorist attacks as well as detection and decontamination procedures for skin, water, soil, and equipment are discussed in detail.
